There are many reasons why the Mayan and the Hindu Arabic number systems are different some of these are why.
The Mayan number System has a place value and a non place value system and the Hindu Arabic number system has a place value system.
Their based numbers are different, the Mayans is 20 and the Hindu Arabic is 10.
The Mayan number system only has three symbols, and the Hindu Arabic number system has up to ten symbols including the zero.
Hindu Arabic number system reads or makes it from left to right on the Mayan number system you make or read it from top to bottom.
The Mayans also didn't have the concept of fraction
Both the Mayan and Hindu-Arabic number systems are positional systems, meaning the value of a digit is determined by its position in the number. Both systems use a base 10 system, where each position represents a power of 10. Additionally, both systems utilize a symbol to represent zero, allowing for more complex mathematical operations.
well, the similarites are quite easy really; the similarities would be the way they represent the 1 is just a line. Usually, when we write a 1 on a piece of paper its just a line... well, in a basic way.
the way they represent one is a line (|)...
Nothing really it just diffrent shapes.
The Hindu- Arabic number system has different symbols for number form one to nine though The Egyptian number system repeatedly uses the strokes, which is used twice for 2, used thrice for three and so on....... Disadvantages in Egyptian number systems are though number are long they are not necessarily the largest and though symbols are short they are not necessarily the shortest answer.
the kind of symbols they have i think lol :P good luck on that one!
Both make use of a zero symbol but Mayan numbers have 20 as a base whereas Hindu-Arabic numbers have 10 as a base.

Mayan numerals are written from top to bottom and not borizontal and the Arabic numerals dont use top to bottom

Hindu-Arabic is our current number system while Babylonian numbers are an ancient number system which uses base 60 and uses only two symbols.

The Arabic system
Yes
It is the number system we use everyday.
